Newest Release by Federal Reserve has Promissing Signs for Greater Boston's Real Estate Market

In the April 25th release of the Beige Book , the Federal Reserve report shows promise for the greater Boston's real estate market. Noted in the Summary that: " In contrast, the Boston District reported that the volume of residential sales across New England shows signs of increasing, though prices remained below 2006 levels."

More specifically, the Boston section of the report says:

"Residential Real Estate

Across New England, the volume of residential sales shows signs of increasing. In Massachusetts, sales volume increased year-on-year in both January and February. Single-family home sales reported from Massachusetts multiple listing services increased 1.2 percent in February from a year earlier after a double-digit year-on-year increase in January. Contacts in New Hampshire and Maine also cite signs of improved sales activity. Increased sales volume and lower overall inventory has led to improved supply conditions in regional markets. In Massachusetts, the total number of listings decreased 17 percent from February 2006 to February 2007. At the current pace of sales, there is around 12.3 months of supply in the Massachusetts market, down from over 15 months in February 2006. Market conditions, however, continue to favor buyers across the region, as supply exceeds what contacts feel is balanced in most locations.

Though sales volume is increasing, prices remain below their previous year levels. In Massachusetts, single family home prices were down in February from the previous year's levels by around 4 percent while condominium prices were down 1.8 percent. Contacts in Connecticut, Maine, and New Hampshire also report year-on-year price declines.

Overall, contacts are encouraged by recent changes, suggesting that New England residential markets are returning to what they term more normal conditions. "

You can read the full APRIL 25th REPORT HERE.

Buyer's Market: If It's On the Front Page, Does That Make It Official?

Front page article on today's Patriot Ledger (complete with color photo !) "FOR SOME, A TIME TO BUY". The feature story by Andrew Lightman tells why two couples chose to buy now. One couple wanted out from their apartment. The other buyers are engaged to be married this fall and saw the 'buyer friendly' market as the opportunity to buy now.

Both are taking advantage of the continuing low interest rate and large inventory of homes for sale. Interviews with the publications editor of the Warren group and a local Realtor, reinforced the advantages that buyers have today. This is particulary true for first time home buyers, as they do not have to worry about how long it might take to sell.

There is no guarantee as to how long either the interest rate will stay low with a large inventory.

The lesson is that if you want to benefit from today's market conditions conditions, you have to stop being a "looker" and turn yourself into a "buyer"!

More Good Real Estate News for the South Shore of Boston

In a feature article on the Business page of last night's Patriot Ledger, Steve Adams says "The South Shore may have some of the state's best bargains for house hunters this spring"....."In a sign that the real estate downturn may be approaching its nadir, however, sales activity rebounded in the first quarter statewide."

Using data releaed by the Massachusetts Association of Realtors, the median price of a single family home in the region fell 4.3 percent from a year ago compared with 1.1 percent, statewise.

“The housing market in Massachusetts is gaining momentum and we can continue to feel good about where it is headed,” said MAR President Doug Azarian, broker/owner of Century21 Dream Homes in Falmouth. “With prices remaining stable and supplies decreasing, we can expect the spring home buying season to be active.”

So what does it mean for buyers and sellers? Good news for Sellers: Buyers are out there, and they're really looking to buy! Good news for Buyers: Sellers have repriced and the prices are near bottom with good interest rates still there!

If Buyers and Sellers can get past the gloomy news that had been prevalent for some months, they can make the deal that will satisfy both.

Red Sox Sweep Series and Tie Four HR Record

One of the benefits of growing up the the greater Boston area is being a Red Sox fan. You don't have to attend every game or sit glued to the TV to share in Red Sox pride as part of the Red Sox Nation.

But several times, last night I went back to ESPN to catch up on the score. Red Sox vs Yankees....as the lead switched back and forth, my switching channels became less frequent. Go Sox! Well, we all know the the game ended with our Red Sox winners 7-6. As for the 4 straight home runs in the 3rd inning, that was frosting on the cake.
